Alligator>China Cat>Eleven>Alligator - speaks for itself. The only crime here is I wish the 2nd Alligator was way longer!

You can clearly hear the first part of this jam was used on Anthem of the Sun - it's out of this world!!

Longish jam starts off pretty loose with an early Thirteens from Phil, but tightens up nicely with some killer Jerry to bring it on home!

Scarlet Begonias -> Fire On The Mountain
Oct. 2, 1977
Paramount Theatre

WOW!!! You're not kidding. Next to 9/2/78 and 11/30/80, this Scar>Fire has one of the all time best, super smooth, out-of-this -world transitions I've ever heard. And the Fire ROCKS! Nice call, man!!

Very nice version. The transition into drums is especially well played.
Lazy Lightnin' -> Supplication

The Other One

International Amphitheatre

Great version with a nice Phil solo and lots of peaks and valleys. Psychedelic rock at its best.
Eyes Of The World

Frost Amphitheatre

A very beautiful and patient Eyes, unique in the fact that it's not speed-laced like most '80s versions. Must hear material from a great show.
